org.geomajas.gwt.client.controller.GraphicsController

General interface for a controller set on a {@link org.geomajas.gwt.client.widget.MapWidget}. It should implement all of the available mouse handling events.

These controllers can do anything they want with these mouse events, and as a result only one controller can be active on a map at any given time. This is also the difference between controllers and listeners. A Listener passively listens to mouse events without ever interfering with them. Therefore there is no maximum of listeners that can be active on a map at any given time.
